Cabbage Soup

Cabbage soup is so comforting and healing. It's one of my go-to soups when I want a good hearty meal! This recipe is vegan, and sometimes I even add cooked chickpeas to give it a little boost of protein and fibre. **Due to my impaired digestive system (under active stomach), i've started avoiding canned beans because of gassiness that usually tags along after eating them. I have full intentions of introducing beans back into my life once I get a more powerful digestive system!**

Cabbage is like holy-shit good for us. I'll write a separate post of the benefits of cruciferous vegetables later!

In the meantime, cabbage is really good for those with ulcers as it helps to repair the stomach lining, and also reduces the risk of ulcers returning. It's also very high in sulphoraphane which is a CRAZY good nutrient that helps to detoxify the body of harmful estrogens and toxins (even some heavy metals).

This is a very good soup to have around if you are sick as it is so warming and nourishing to the body. Not to mention it makes a pretty big batch! It's super easy to make, and my roommate and I get about 5 bowls each from it! Talk about healthy eating made easy for the whole family ;)

** Soup lets you get creative (it's very forgiving!). If you add a little extra of this, or a little less of that, it will probably be still turn out amazing.

Hi there! I'm Darian - Holistic Nutritionist and Culinary Arts student.
I started this blog to share recipes that inspire me to live a happy and holistic life, while following my passion for health and eating delicious food. I love adding simple twists to mainstream meals to make them delicious and nourishing, and clean from harmful or refined ingredients.
I like to think I'm a pretty funny person and I never intend to offend anyone.. So if you think something is funny, laugh. If you don't find something funny, well, that sucks to be you.. I hope you love my recipes!
Much love from your girl, Darian xo
